Today, we claim victory over the spam bots

If you've paid attention to the Members page, you've seen how many spam registrations this site has got in recent times. They just love to take advantage of the weak captchas and outdated software that this site has been running for the past 8 years or so. In the past there have been times where we were seeing hundreds of spam registrations per day. Luckily most of them were stopped by the second level of defense of captchas when submitting a post.

But recently I've implemented a new authentication system which requires a reCaptcha to be solved upon registration, and the spam registrations have just stopped dead in their tracks! :D

Now, because of this I've taken off captchas when making posts in all parts of the site: forums, requests, recordings, etc. So there may be the stray spambot that had already made an account returning and not having a captcha to get through.

Next up, we will open up the new community forum! :D

At last, the spammers are gone, or are they?

Great job btw. Looking forward to the next new changes.

I have a suggestion. Could we create a section in submissions for approved and denied tabs? That way it is easier for the mods to tell whether they should check on the tab, or if they can just skip it.

On the new forum, we can definitely implement that.
